Stovies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stovies is a traditional Scottish dish. Recipes and ingredients vary widely between regions, and even families, but the dish contains potatoes, usually (but not always)[1] onions and often (but again not always)[1][2] leftover roast beef, corned beef, mince or other meat.
The potatoes are cooked by stewing with fat and stock; stove also having the meaning of stew or to stew in Scots.[2] Lard, beef dripping or butter[1] may be used.
It is also popular to stew the potatoes just in water with the onions before adding the roast beef, mince or corned beef.
Stovies may be accompanied by oatcakes.
